Hey hey all, time for another BasicGrey Challenge :), Thanks so much to all of you who played along to the last challenge, it was lovely to see all of your wonderful Winged creations :)

Before we tell you about the new challenge though we just want to give you all a little heads up that this will be the last BasicGrey Challenge until the new year as we are taking a break over the Christmas Holidays, we will still be announcing the winner of this Challenge as normal though, so we will see you all then :)

Right then, on with the Challenge eh, here we go then

A Recipe

For this fortnights Challenge we would like you to use the following Recipe :)

4 Different Types of Embellishments(You can have as many of each type as you wish, as long as there are 4 different kinds, for example Ribbon, Pearls, Flowers, Charms etc etc)

3 Different Patterned Papers(You can have as many plain matting papers as you wish, just as long as there are 3 patterned papers)

1-2 Images and/or 1-2 Sentiments(You can choose to have up to 2 in either of these, or even both if you wish)

Don't forget though, to be eligible to win the fab prize for this challenge you MUST use at least one item from BasicGrey somewhere on your creation, it would also be helpful if you could state on your post what that item is, makes it easier for us you see :)

This Challenge Closes on Friday the 10th of December at 11.00 pm (GMT)

The Prize

As always, our wonderful sponsor Simon Says Stamp is offering one lucky winner a fab $25 shopping spree in the Simon Says Superstore :), ooo just think of the goodies you could get with that you lucky ducks :)

(Please note: This is a voucher code that entitles the winner to a $25 saving off their order in Simon Says Stamp, P+P charges will still apply unless the conditions are met to earn free P+P, please check here if you would like to see these conditions)

Please be sure to link to your entry and not just your blog as this will make it easier for us to find your creation.

Also can we ask a little favour?, if it is at all possible would you mind removing Word Verification from your blogs? (if you have it turned on that is), It would make things so much easier for us when we leave you a comment, Instead we would HIGHLY recommend turning on your Comment Moderation, this will actually protect your blog from spam much more than Word Verification does because you can easily reject any suspicious comments :), if you are not sure how to do this, there is a “how to” listed on the sidebar over to the right :)
